Fitting drill bits & accessories
WARNING: ALWAYS remove the Battery from the drill before attaching, adjusting or removing
accessories .
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to tighten drill bits (or any other accessory) by gripping the front
part of the chuck and switching the tool ON. This can lead to personal injury and can cause damage
to the chuck .
WARNING: NEVER fit any accessory or bit with a maximum speed lower than the no load speed
of the power tool.
1. Open the Chuck Jaws (1) by rotating the Chuck Collar (2) anti-clockwise
2 . Place the drill bit or accessory centrally into the chuck
3. Tighten the Chuck Jaws by rotating the Chuck Collar clockwise
Note: When the drill bit or accessory is securely fastened, carefully run the machine to test that it is
running centrally, smoothly and evenly. If the bit is wobbling or not running centrally, release the
chuck, check the accessory for damage, correct its position, retighten and test again .
Operation
Direction control
WARNING: NEVER change the direction of rotation while the tool is running. This may cause
permanent damage to the tool .
• The direction of rotation can be set using the Forward/Reverse Switch (6)
• Slide the Switch to the required position (Fig. IV).
Note: When the Forward/Reverse Switch is in the central position, the drill is locked and cannot
be switched ON. Use this setting as a safety feature to prevent the drill from being switched ON
accidentally .
Torque control
Note: This cordless drill is equipped with a torque control clutch allowing the tool to be set to the
correct torque for the individual application .
• The clutch settings are indicated by the symbols on the Torque/Mode Selector (3)
• Rotate the Torque Selector to select the desired setting: the higher the number displayed at the
top of the torque ring (Fig . V) the higher the torque produced by the tool
• For drilling rotate the Torque Selector to the drill position
Gear selection
• Select gear 1 on the Gear Switch (4) for the higher torque. A lower speed gear is generally more
suitable for driving screws and fasteners
• Select gear 2 on the Gear Switch for the lower torque. A higher speed gear is for drilling and must
not be used for driving screws and fasteners
Note: ALWAYS read the documentation provided with drill bits and accessories for the
recommended or maximum speed setting and use the most appropriate gear. See 'Specification' for
the maximum no load speed of each gear .
Switching ON & OFF
WARNING: ALWAYS wear adequate personal protection equipment when setting up and
operating this tool .
1. To start the drill driver, squeeze the Trigger Switch (14)
2. The built-in LED Work Light (15) will illuminate when the Trigger Switch is squeezed
Note: If the Trigger Switch cannot be pressed down, check that the Forward/Reverse Switch (6) is not
set to its middle position, which locks the device (see 'Direction control' section).
3 . The speed of the drill driver is controlled by the movement of the trigger: the further the Trigger
Switch is pressed down, the faster the drill driver will run
4. Release the Trigger Switch to stop the tool
Screwdriver use
Note: Always use a universal bit holder when working with screwdriver bits. Do not mount
screwdriver bits directly into the chuck.
1. Select gear 1 using the Gear Switch (5)
2. Adjust the drill to the appropriate torque setting (see 'Torque control')
• When driving screws NEVER use the tool in drill mode
Note: If in doubt which torque setting best suits the application, start with a low setting and
increase, should more torque be required (e.g. if the screw is not being driven far enough into the
workpiece).
Drilling wood
1. Select the appropriate gear using the Gear Switch (4)
2 . Rotate the torque Selector (3) to the drill position
• Ensure that drill bits are suitable for wood, and are within the maximum capacity of this tool
(see 'Specification')
WARNING: DO NOT inhale wood dust. Wear adequate breathing protection. Some wood dusts
may be toxic .
Drilling metal
1. Select the appropriate gear using the Gear Switch (4)
2 . Rotate the torque Selector (3) to the drill position
• Ensure that drill bits are suitable for the grade of metal being drilled, and are within the
maximum capacity of the tool (see 'Specification')
• To ensure accuracy, mark the intended hole position using a hammer and centre punch
WARNING:The drill bit and the workpiece will become very hot when drilling metal. DO NOT
touch the bit and never allow it to come into contact with combustible materials when hot. Always
use a suitable lubricant or cutting fluid, and drill at appropriate speeds.
• ONLY apply moderate pressure to the drill bit, ensuring efficient cutting and prolonged drill
bit life
• Use a countersink bit to remove sharp burrs from the hole, preventing cuts and other kinds
of injury
WARNING: If the power tool becomes excessively hot in use, stop using the tool immediately
and allow to cool before continuing work. The cooling period can be reduced by operating the Drill
Driver at maximum speed with no load. Always ensure the Motor Vents (5) are not blocked and do
not allow dust to enter the body of the tool through the Motor Vents; dust, especially metallic dust,
may damage or destroy the tool .
